| Orth's stain | <technique> A lithium carmine stain for nerve cells and their processes. (05 Mar 2000) |

| Taenzer's stain | <technique> An orcein solution used for staining elastic tissue. Synonym: Unna-Taenzer stain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Takayama's stain | <technique> A stain containing pyridine, sodium hydrate, and dextrose; used for identification of blood stains; a drop added to a suspected blood stain results in the formation of haemochromogen crystals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| telomeric R-banding stain | <technique> A modified R-banding stain in which the telomeres become strongly stained and faint R-banding still occurs over the rest of the chromosomes; uses air-dried slides, aging for several days, and staining in hot phosphate-buffered Giemsa stain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thioflavine T stain | <technique> A stain employed to detect amyloid, which induces specific yellow fluorescence; tissue sections are first put in alum-haematoxylin to quench nuclear fluorescence and then stained in thioflavine T. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ehrlich's acid haematoxylin stain | <technique> An alum type of haematoxylin stain used as a regressive staining method for nuclei, followed by differentiation to required staining intensity; the solution may be allowed to ripen naturally in sunlight or partially oxidised with sodium iodate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ehrlich's aniline crystal violet stain | <technique> A stain for Gram-positive bacteria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ehrlich's triacid stain | <technique> A differential leukocytic stain comprised of saturated solutions of orange G, acid fuchsin, and methyl green. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ehrlich's triple stain | <technique> A mixture of indulin, eosin Y, and aurantia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Einarson's gallocyanin-chrome alum stain | <technique> A method for staining both RNA and DNA a deep blue; with proper controls, nucleic acid content of stained cells and nuclei may be estimated by cytophotometry; also useful for Nissl substance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Tizzoni's stain | <technique> A stain used as a test for iron in tissue; the tissue is treated with a solution of potassium ferrocyanide and then with dilute hydrochloric acid; a blue colouration indicates the presence of iron. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Toison's stain | <technique> A blood diluent and leukocyte stain containing methyl violet, sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, and glycerin; also used for erythrocyte counts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trichrome stain | <technique> Staining combinations which usually contain three dyes of contrasting colours selected to stain connective tissue, muscle, cytoplasm, and nuclei in bright colours; generally, tissue sections are first dyed in iron haematoxylin before being treated with the other dyes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Eranko's fluorescence stain | <technique> Exposure of frozen sections to formaldehyde which produces a strong yellow-green fluorescence from cells containing norepinephrine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trypsin G-banding stain | <technique> A unique chromosome staining technique, used in human cytogenetics to identify individual chromosomes, which produces characteristic bands. It utilises acetic acid fixation, air drying, denaturing chromosomes mildly with proteolytic enzymes, salts, heat, detergents, or urea, and finally Giemsa stain; chromosome bands appear similar to those fluorochromed by Q-banding stain. Synonym: Giemsa chromosome banding stain. (05 Mar 2000) |
